Last minute preparation tips to crack JEE Advanced 2020
Any effort to serve the student can be effective only if we put ourselves in the shoes of the student and understand their psyche and pain points. And it is exactly what we tried to do while preparing our list of last minute preparation tips to crack JEE Advanced 2020. Additionally, we also considered expert opinion on the subject to come with this list for cracking JEE Advanced 2020. Read on!
Don’t study any new topics – As it is the time to get ready for execution of what you have learned. If you start a new topic at this stage, it will take up a few hours or even a day, which you simply can’t afford. So, put a full stop to any new topics that you haven’t touched before. Instead, try to maximize what you have already studied.
Save time by sticking to notes – If you have made notes of the important points, read them. It will save you the trouble of having to go through large blocks of irrelevant text unless you really need to.
Revise, revise, revise – The importance of revision can hardly be over emphasised. It is because the more your revise, the more what you are studying will become second nature. And if it becomes second nature, the solutions would come out your brain without you being putting any effort. For effective revision, make sure that the time lag between successive revision is not too much; this way things will stay fresh in your mind and revision will be a breeze.
Solve sample and previous years’ papers – If you have been following the news lately, you must be up to date with the controversy that erupted over some questions created by a coaching institute being repeated in JEE Main. If you solve enough JEE Advanced sample and question papers, such easy pickings may present themselves before you. And even if they don’t, you will have enough fire-power and confidence to cut down to size anything that is thrown at you.
Get familiar with the online exam – This year for the first time the entrance exam will be conducted in complete online mode. As such, it is not a bad idea to take the JEE Advanced mock test, as it will help you get familiar with the functionalities of the exam. This in turn will help you save a few seconds or minute that you can utilize to solve that extra question. Familiarity with the exam will also help you get over exam jitters.
Take rest in between preparation: Many of us have the habit of slogging for extended hours as exam day looms. This is not advisable as it will extinguish your pool of energy and might also drag your spirit. Instead in these last few days, you must take timely breaks, drink sufficient water and take timely sleep. Sleep deprivation is in fact one of the main reasons why many candidates falter in exams despite having decent preparation. So to avoid any exam day blues, sleep you full quota of hours and wake up rejuvenated.
Finally plan for exam day – A simple thing like reaching the exam centre on time would ensure your nerves are not all over the place. Also, check out what all stuff you will need on exam day – admit card, photo id card, or any other document. Electronic gadgets, written texts, log tables, packaged eatables, etc. are not allowed inside the exam hall. Last year, candidates had to carry with them items like pencils, erasers, and black ball point pen. But since from this year the exam is conducted in online mode, these items are inessential.
Follow the JEE Advanced 2020 last minute preparation tips mentioned above, and you will be able to stay a step ahead of your competitor!

i had already applied to jee mains 2021 in general category but my caste is Bc-e in caste certificate which percentage i got to select for jee advanced
Since you have filled your category as a general candidate therefore you will be considered a general student and you need to score marks in jee mains according to the general cut off to qualify for jee advanced. According to the previous year cut off a general candidate had to score at least 81 percentile to qualify jee mains and be eligible for jee advanced, however it was 49 for OBC-NCL, 32 for SC, 27 for ST, and 1 for PWD for the year 2020. Although the cut off may vary from year to year as it depends on various parameters like number of students attempting the examination, difficulty of paper, etc.

Dear aspirant,
For appearing in criteria in jee 2021 it doesn't see that whether you have gap between your 10th and 12th std.
One of the major criteria for appearing in jee advanced is you should pass your 12th by 2021,2022 and 2023 .
Recently, education minister has waived off the 75% criteria for this year also.

how to pass this exam perfectly ?
Dear aspirant
hey need to because JEE Advanced demands an in-depth knowledge of concepts and their application. It is not just about putting in the hours, but equally about using smart ways to maximize the time left at one’s disposal. It is the performance in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics that hold the key to cracking JEE Advanced . Also, the candidate must not waste time in preparing for topics that are not included in JEE Advanced syllabus. To give you an example, Electronic Devices and Electromagnetic Waves which were part of JEE Main syllabus are not included in JEE Advanced syllabus .

i have passed 12th class in 2021.can i write 2022jeemains and jee advanced?
Hello Himani,
Yes of course you can do do, you can take a drop after passing class 12th and can prepare for JEE-Main as well as Advance but before taking drop you should know some facts, so let us discuss those facts.
- In class 12th you should have minimum aggregate of 75% if you belongs to General/Unreserved category and 65% if you belongs to any of the reserved category and in your class 12th syllabus there should Physics and Mathematics as mandatory subjects with any one of Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology or Technical Vocational Subject. If not 75% then you should be in top 20 percentile of your board's result.
- If you are passing class 12th in 2021 then you will be only eligible for JEE-Main 2021, 2022 and 2023 and for JEE-Advance 2021 and 2022. Now in case you you take a drop for an year then also it won't affect the eligibility instead your attempt of 2021 will be subtracted from total attempts and al other attempts will remain same.
